A friend and I nearly always go on the bus into Worthing on Saturdays. Yesterday was no exception. The bus was empty, the town was empty, and much of it was flooded. The wind was blowing the sea and the flood.
Many shops had given up, and shut their doors, although the water was still blowing under them. The staff were on the other sides with their buckets and mops. Clinging on to each other like two drowned rats, we went into Iceland, which is on the corner of the sea front. Guess what - empty, so no queue at the checkout
. Had a cuppa in Debenhams coffee shop, and every cake stand was full up. Nobody in there either. We left and waded through the flood and came home. I had my riding mac on, and the water was dripping off the bottom of it, and my jeans were stuck to my legs, my trainers (normally waterproof) were squelching.
Back home, heating on, dripping clothing in the bathroom, and another hot cuppa.
What a couple of very silly old birds. (seagulls ?) But it was quite funny.
Did you venture out anywhere ? Mrs Bouquet
